Brisket question

[johanns]

Hi guys quick question do you have any tips on how to store smoked (already cooked) Brisket.

Also what is the optimal way to re-heat for best results?

Cheers

My wife would say never reheat meat. My son would say use the sous vide (probably best). I am a Neanderthal. I use the microwave.

I vacuum seal and freeze the cuts.. I separate into the point for later use as burnt ends and flat for sandwiches. This allows one to reheat the flat via sous vide to retain moisture, while the burnt ends point just gets cut into pieces, placed in an aluminum disposable pan with a light dusting of your favorite dry rub and BBQ sauce and heated at 325F until just right.

This way I always have quick meals available when I am too lazy to cook.

I’ve been thinking about getting a vacuum sealer so could cook larger amounts to seal and freeze. Any recommendations on brand/model?

My son has a Foodsaver (last year - moose, elk, deer). You can get them at Sam's. Watch out on the price at various outdoor (hunting) stores.
